About

I am Laura Jayne, curator of haunted thoughts and ghostly tales.

Everything Haunted is a growing space for my reflections and research on ghosts and hauntings — on screen and beyond. It runs alongside my Master’s dissertation, If You Have Ghosts, You Have Everything: Reimagining Haunting as Healing on Screen, where I am exploring how ghost stories in film and television can be viewed as hopeful and healing rather than purely horrific.

I love the stories on screen and in life where haunting becomes a way of working through grief and absence — where ghosts offer comfort, connection, and meaning, even when they frighten us. Here, you will find fragments of my ghostly research, personal reflections, film trails, spectral musings, conversations, and perhaps the odd haunted map or two.

When I am not writing about ghosts you will find me under a blanket with my three cats in Whitby.

For stories that linger, and spirits that heal.

Welcome to the haunt.
